Final Answer :
A
Explanation :
Maslow and Rogers would likely recommend that Wanda teach her children first to accept themselves because self-acceptance is a foundational aspect of developing an accepting attitude towards others. If the children have a strong sense of self-acceptance, they are less likely to judge others and more likely to approach people with empathy and understanding. The other options listed (using discipline sparingly and being affectionate only when the children behave as she wishes) are not directly related to fostering an accepting attitude towards others.
